Persona 4 Golden is an enhanced version of the role-playing game Persona 4, combining turn-based combat with daily life simulation. Players control a high school student who moves to the rural town of Inaba for one year and becomes involved in investigating a series of murders linked to a mysterious world inside television sets. Gameplay is divided between exploring randomly generated dungeons where players fight Shadows using summoned creatures called Personas, and navigating daily life by attending school, building friendships through Social Links, and developing character attributes. Golden adds new story content including the character Marie, additional Personas, online features, new difficulty settings, expanded voice acting, and additional animated cutscenes over the original PlayStation 2 release.

Just finished. I don't know what to do with my life now. Sad that the journey has come to an ending (and it was indeed a journey). I normally don't replay games but damn I'm already thinking of starting my New Game + and going for a better ending (I got Bad ending B apparently). What an incredible ride. This …

Just finished. I don't know what to do with my life now. Sad that the journey has come to an ending (and it was indeed a journey). I normally don't replay games but damn I'm already thinking of starting my New Game + and going for a better ending (I got Bad ending B apparently). What an incredible ride. This will go down as one of the best games I've ever played.

How Long To Beat tells me I'm about 30 hours away from finishing the game. What a journey it has been. Still slowly plugging away a few hours before bed, this has definitely been an amazing gaming experience. It still amazes me how much nuance has gone into just about every aspect of the game.

Fired up the Vita a week ago and started playing a bit of Persona. Well, it's definitely sucked me in! Become a bit of a ritual to play a little before bed and over the weekend. About 20 hours in.

Enjoying the game more now that I started using walkthrough than I was when I was trying to play blind. Also, RNG is badddd in this game. I hate farming for materials and fishing in this game.

Continued my save from about a year ago, kind of wish I started over from the beginning because I already made a bunch of mistakes, but I was already pretty far. Really starting to dislike the side quests because I can’t get the right enemies to appear. Still having fun with the game overall though.

So I'd heard about this game. Supposedly the 'best' game on the PS Vita. A stack of websites had it at the top of their list of 'best games to own on the Vita'. I was intrigued. When I went perusing on the store I noticed the game was only AU $15. Was it a sale? No. It seemed to …

So I'd heard about this game. Supposedly the 'best' game on the PS Vita. A stack of websites had it at the top of their list of 'best games to own on the Vita'. I was intrigued. When I went perusing on the store I noticed the game was only AU $15. Was it a sale? No. It seemed to simply be the price.

Surely, the greatest game on the Vita couldn't be only $15? So, when my memory card finally arrived I downloaded it. And this began my dive into a strangely addictive and compelling JRPG that is shaping up to be... well quite brilliant.

After YEARS of this game sitting in the backlog, I finally fired it up. Played a couple hours, stopping after having done the first boss fight. Immediately liking it better than Persona 3, which I found to be somewhat annoying.

Just started this last night since Winter Break is coming up. I've been feeling the pull to play this game since Persona 5 comes out in April. I'm on April 18
